Owner Occupied Services
StrongTower Capital Corp. is uniquely positioned to assist private and public companies that own and occupy real estate assets. (Owner-User) We assist owner-user companies with acquisition finance, re-finance, equity placement, Portfolio analysis, sale leaseback executions, and corporate finance consulting. Owner occupied assets and portfolios are viewed very differently by the capital markets than assets that are owned and operated by investment or development firms. The manner in which capital sources evaluate owner occupied assets is different, the risk management and mitigation strategies are different, and the funding process is different.
StrongTower Capital is unique in that it recognizes the owner occupied commercial real estate market as a separate and unique segment and we have an unmatched understanding of the nuances and factors that are unique to this market. We possess longstanding relationships with capital sources that have a specific focus on the owner occupied market. Further, we understand the requirements, evaluation criteria, and strengths and weakness of each capital source.
We follow a well defined, process oriented methodology when evaluating each client’s specific situation. The first step is to gain a deep understanding of your business. This includes services offered, markets server, competitive landscape, financial history, and market trend analysis. The knowledge gained during this process allows us to properly position the strengths of your company and assets while mitigating the risk factors. As a result, we have success obtaining financing in situations where companies do not meet the standard criteria of capital market sources. We apply our understanding of macro and micro economic factors, capital market conditions, local market dynamics, and specific capital source guidelines to provide the option(s) that will allow our clients to be well positioned for long term success.
Below is a list of capital sources that StrongTower Capital leverages:
- National banks
- Regional banks
- Finance companies
- Life insurance companies
- REITS
- Pension funds
- Private equity and opportunity funds
- High net worth individual investors
Equally critical to the creation of the debt structure and selection is the closing process. StrongTower Capital follows a detailed, process oriented methodology that ensures transactions are executed as promised. We create a closing plan that includes milestones, action items, roles and responsibilities, and associated timeframes for each step in the due diligence and closing process. We monitor and document, in writing, each critical step in the process.
